Anne Burrell has rocked in some of New York�s best Italian kitchens, she�s rocked the Food Network, and now she�s gonna help you rock your kitchen with this book.�--GUY FIERI �Anne Burrell is the real deal. TV or no TV, famous or not, you put her in front of a stove and she will cook your ass under the table.�--ANTHONY BOURDAIN �Oh, baby, Anne has really knocked it out of the park with this book. It�s bold, fun, and full of the passion that people love about her.�--EMERIL LAGASSE �While reading these pages, I found myself almost transfixed by Anne�s strong literary voice and compelling (yet so simple!) recipes. . . I even looked over my shoulder a few times as I read or cooked, as if she were standing right by me, whispering hints and tips in my ear. Check out a new voice in Italian food�one that will make you want to bust out your pots and pans and give these great recipes a try. I guarantee that you will feel (and cook) like a rock star in your own kitchen!�--ALEX GUARNASCHELLI �Reading Cook Like a Rock Star will make you feel like you�re with Anne in the kitchen. You�re at the stove, she�s behind you, jumping up and down, cheering you on. Her one-of-a-kind voice is in every recipe�getting excited about porchetta (who doesn't?), raving about deviled eggs, admitting her addiction to gnocchi. This girl loves Italian food. Loves it. She is down to earth, her enthusiasm is infectious, and the best part is that she knows what she is talking about�as if Marcella Hazan were an earthy ragazza next door who invited you over to taste her latest pasta creation. Brava, Anne!�--CESARE CASELLA �Anne knows what it�s like to be mentored by the best and I�ve seen her continue this tradition with young professional chefs. It�s exciting that people will now have the chance to get this same advice and support at home by reading and using this terrific book.�--MASAHARU MORIMOTO �Anne�s food is as vibrant and fun as her personality�not everyone can party like a rock star, but with this great book, you'll be cooking like one!�--MICHAEL SYMON �Anne�s cookbook reads just like she talks�funny, bawdy, full of energy, and rarin� to cook. Cook Like a Rock Star makes you feel like you�re backstage with her at Secrets of a Restaurant Chef, just the two of you, learning the techniques and tricks she�s spent her whole career perfecting. Every line in this book tells the reader that you can do this! And every page inspires, encourages, simplifies, and demystifies the craft.�--TED ALLEN
